With an Honor to my right is Ramona Hastings Soke, with some of her fine seito in New Hamsphire.   Truly at this part in my journey, I needed to be with close friends.  This was my 4th visit now, and beings they are like family to me.  I was like a Homing Piegen, riding my bike through New Hampshire. Was truly close to my first ticket but with Gods help, and my Indian guide.
Truly have to tell this one story for the web site.  The third young lady to my right is Mary san.  She received her Black Belt a week or too prior to my visit.  Mary also made the adventure to California almost going on two years ago.  During a trunk twist exercise I am standing behind seito working out.  It seems there were maybe 8 or 10 more seito in class.  Mary is a soft spoken, beautiful heart individual.  Her boy friend is standing over her left shoulder.  He is at least 275 easy!  I just place my forarms in position for their arms to strike during exercise.   End of class I even complimented her infront of all.   That she truly hurt my arms more than anyone else in class that day.  She is truly learning the ki concepts I have presented.  Then again it is her effort, that makes her rewards, and credit.
